THIS! A really captivating account of Royalist Newark, (and a fascinating glimpse into a genuinely popular and patriotic conservatism, of a proudly independent variety. )

Revealing Royalist experiences during the Sieges of Newark-on-Trent
Staunchly Royalist, the town was besieged three times before finally surrendering.
@JadeJesty_@pembroke1347 discusses daily life and death, in the besieged town. https://t.co/N5hwajny0i

Devil-Land - England under siege
Among foreign observers, 17c England was known as 'Devil-Land' a country of fallen angels, torn apart by rebellion, religious extremism & royal collapse.
Clare Jackson @Cambridge_Uni brings this period to life.

At @pembroke1347, we hosted a Summer Academy for @Elephant__Group, a charity which works with high achieving Year 12s to access higher education. We had a great discussion about the breadth of a History degree and explored 17th Century pamphlets! #twitterstorians

“Publishers have finally woken up to the potential of the civil wars”. Thrilling spot by always shrewd @dcsandbrook@thetimes with which I totally agree. We civil war historians have waited a long time for this & I’m excited to add my own #TheHouseofCromwell to the revival! 📚
It was a delight to deliver Pembroke’s History Subject Masterclass with our visiting Year 12s today! We explored popular print from the 1640s, before comparing Royalist and Parliamentarian petitions from @cwpetitions! 👑 @PemCamOutreach
📚Beyond excited to present 'Prince Rupert of the Rhine' which is now available for pre-order!
Delving into 2⃣4⃣ archives has unearthed so many treasures, especially about the key women in his life.
